Structural and thermotropic properties of synthetic C16:0 (palmitoyl) ceramide: effect of hydration.
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction techniques have been used to investigate the structure and thermotropic properties of synthetic, non-hydroxy fatty acid (16:0) ceramide (NFA(C16)CER) as a function of hydration. Anhydrous NFA(C16)CER shows a single, broad endothermic tran...
